Favorite Jobs

- Quality control processes
The right material delivered at the right time is the foundation of everything we create. I take pride in knowing that my work behind the scenes enables our craftspeople to maintain their focus on quality without worrying about supply issues.
Physical Condition
Brigitte is experiencing significant fatigue and mild headache today due to the stress of managing recent supply chain challenges. She moves more slowly than usual through the warehouse but maintains her attention to detail.
Favorite Place
Brigitte's favorite place is her material library office adjacent to the warehouse, where she's created a systematic catalog of every material Holzmann has ever used in a project. Floor-to-ceiling shelves contain labeled samples of woods, veneers, hardware, and finishes, each with detailed information about suppliers, sustainability certifications, and performance characteristics. The space features excellent natural light for accurate color assessment and a comfortable meeting area where she consults with designers and clients about material options. She's particularly proud of the historical collection of traditional German wood finishes she's assembled as a reference resource.
